All four quarterbacks have been so very good Troy Aikman. last years winner should be the favorite to win. Joe Montana of the Chiefs has superior experience with his three Super Bowls wins. But tlie cold winters in Buffalo with his injury riddle body and his age may go against him Especially with an inspired Jim Kelly after three unsuccessful trips to rite Super Bowl may bring the intensity up for the Bills. I feel sorry for Joe against the "mad Bills ." They may play like "gun slingers". And it looks like the 49ers shot their wad against the Giants 44 to 3. But you never can tell, the 49er quarterback wishes to prove himself better than Joe Montana Steve Young sure did it against the Giants. But they are the underdogs against Dallas. Maybe they'll win It sure is close trying to pick a winner I hope the Bills can win the whole thing since I'm from Western New York Jamestown, NY, been here since 1964 though "Quick... get the SuKodene!"

A FRESH STAKT New Year's is not the only time we can make a new beginning Each new day can be a ftesh start for every one of us. When we sorrowfully CONFESS our own weaknesses and SINS, humbly and sincerely ASK for divine forgiveness. TURN away from those old dangerous sinful desires, and then RECEIVE true forgiveness from our Savior and Lord, we have a tremendous sense of relief, a feeling of being washed completely CLEAN inside But we don't SUDDENLY start livinga life without any more problems or temptations. In feet, the same old temptations may hang around to haunt (and taunt) us Like I said before. I seldom heard about SIN when I was growing up But there cettainly seems to be an evil force in our midst subtly turning us toward the wrong road whenever such an opportunity comes up.
